Default REF Phono 10 in the house

Finally i get my Ref Phono 10 today. I was using PH8 and phonostage in C1000T before. Straight out of the box it sounded richer, more detail and clean. I only have 4 hours on it now. Apologize for iPhone photo.

Congratulations with your new Ref Ph 10. I am sure after PH8, it is a big upgrade. I also ordered one for me hopefully will be delivered in 1-2 weeks. The real test will be how it compares to my current Ref 2 SE.

I thought my PH5 to Ref 2 SE was a quantum leap forward, so I can't imagine how huge the PH8 to Ref 10 move will sound.

Congrats!!

Thank you all. I have accumulated some hours. I am enjoying every moment of it. The two boxes of Ref 10, requires me to rearrange the whole setup. Taking monday off from work to do so. Taking away precious listening time :-)

I have rearranged it in my temporary room and have 10 hours on it. I am more than happy :-)
